I think the internet is very useful because there is just so much information out there for students. I think that anytime is good for a student. A lot of teachers dont like when students rely soley on the internet for recourses but I think as time progresses this is the most common form of research and database. I think that they should learn about what is reliable and what is not reliable so that they do not end up gullible to eveyrthing on the internet.

Some web based resources would be things such as gradebooks online where students and parents can check up on them whenever they feel its necessary. I think that dicusssion board and blogs are also helpful to students ebcause they can communicate effectively with others. Websites such as www.livejournal.com provide the means neccessary for students to network.

For the age range that I want to teach which is 3-4 I think that my supervising is going to have to be very careful. Students at this age are not totally aware of everything that can be done in a computer and I think at this age students are more prone to messing up the computer if they maltreat it. I think that its going to have to be one on one or a ratio of about 4 to 5 students per teacher.
